    Happy Birthday Card

    Hello friends! Katty here to share a fun and simple birthday card with you all. I made this card for my mom who’s birthday is this month.

    I began by using the Kat Scrappiness Stitched Fancy Scalloped Square Dies. I used white cardstock with two of the smaller sizes and cut out 6 open scallop squares. I glued them together in sets of two, slightly overlapping each other, creating three sets. Then I glued the three pieces together, slightly overlapping each other as well. I used pink cardstock as my background.

    I used the Sparkling Clear Droplets Sampler Pack and filled in the squares in the center of the overlapped die cuts. I used Ranger Distress Ink in the color Fossilized Amber and stamped my sentiment on white cardstock, the sentiment came from the Easter Stamp set Happy Hoppy by Gerda Steiner Designs.

    I used the same Distress Ink to stamp out two flowers from the Gerbera Blooms Stamp Set by Mudra. I fussy cut both the sentiment and the flowers and tucked the flowers in on opposite ends of the card. I didn’t add the full flower, just pieces of it which I layered together. Finally, I backed the card front on a pink diagonal stripe patterned paper.

    I love how it turned out. Thanks so much for stopping by today! XOXO -Katty

  • Sending Sunshine…

    Hi everyone, Cheryl here with my first blog post since joining the KatScrappiness Design Team. I’m thrilled to be here!

    So, on to my first post.

    I used the stamp set by Mudra called Gerbera Blooms. I used Distress Inks to stamp. I first stamped the bottom layer in the lighter color. Then, using a darker shade, I stamped the detailed top layer, misted with 2-3 spritz of water and stamped. I gives a nice watercolored look. I did that for all the flowers and leaves. Then I fussy cut them out.

    I used a KatScrappiness rope oval die to cut a window into the woodgrain textured cardstock. I then used the same die and the  next one smaller to cut a gold frame. I put it into the window and secured on the backside with tape. I laid out the elements to get a look I liked and using foam tape or liquid glue, I attached them into place. I then mounted that entire piece to the card base.

    To create the sentiment, I stamped it, used my scanner and saved it to my computer. Then, using my Silhouette software, I traced it and created an offset. I cut several. I’ll save some for another time. Then I used my Stampholic stamping tool and stamped the sentiment onto one of the die cuts. I used a few more, gluing them on top of each other to add some thickness to the cut. I then put it where I wanted it on the card front and used liquid glue to adhere. I picked out some tiny bright colored KS sequins and added a few around the card.

    I hope you enjoyed my card for today. Here’s where you can get the supplies I used.
